$110.00 which I thought would square up but I was grieved to learn that I owed him $136.00. Frank went back home and turned out a load of wheat. We then went back to move the piano. We got Goodwin, Frank Awde & a new man from Jack Martin's and Mr. Bagley was there taking some wardrobes apart so we had lots of men but it was quite a lift. We couldn't get the legs off it so had to worm it through the doors. They are getting things ready for the sale over there. We didn't get back much before noon. After dinner we hauled in four jags of wheat. It was damp but we thought it would do. Landon Ivey wanted Frank to go over and rake the wheat stubble and we let him have the rake and Joe Long raked it. They finished thrashing to-day. Jack Martin is over at Syracuse with some chickens. They tell me he took one or two of my old hens over there to the show. Hot.

Thursday August 12th

We went out this morning and turned out all the wheat. We then went back across the gully and put on a load of the poorest hay which we spread on the rails over the bulls and over the granary. As there was a heavy fog and wet this morning, we didn't get started very early, so it was noon by the time we got our load off. This after noon we hauled in the wheat

which was in fairly good shape to go in, we fihured there were about seven decent sized loads although we made more trips to the field than that. There will be a lot of rakings. I wernt down to band concert to-night and the rest all went down to hear it. Roy & Vernon and the children are at Aunty's so we stayed there for quite awhile. Enah was over at Mrs. battersby's salwe al the after noon. It was a big sale and a big crowd. Tid. was down playing with Rebeca all the after noon and stayed down to tea. Very hot and muggy.
